In reply to Kerpal Singh, your exactly right though a steady hand is usually a professionals domain, in the UK we never use masking tape on our jobs BUT i would definitely use masking tape for any surfaces that are not to be touched, it is less hassle than not to have peace of mind especially if the householders are quite posh and like to see a clean tradesman.

For those who never really or ever done any caulking needs to know most caulk guns have a trigger pressure release & or turning the pressure stick handle to unlock it's pressure will stop the caulk from continuing to spew out & dripping everywhere. to also note the smaller you cut the opening at the tip is the finer amount will squeeze out. You need also run your finger over it with dipping your finger in water for a better smooth coverage. Beware that large gaps may take another coat. I am a good man to have on hand' Dave the handyman. Good luck & God Bless!

Hi--If you watch the entire series you will see how I "edge" these lines between wall/ceiling and wall/trim. I often do the lines freehand, and I show the tricks I use to make them look straight. In certain instances it pays to use tape though, especially when you have natural-wood trim (use blue tape). I also usually tape things I am painting above, such as baseboard, to prevent splatter. Too much to explain here completely...it's all in the videos. Thanks!

1 You don't need to completely clear a room of everything in it unless you are messy and incompetent, and you can do the room in the same space of time. So bullshit on that one mate. 2. The edges of holes should be rounded inward to render the patch invisible after sanding. Often the edge of a hole is sitting up proud of the surface and the patch will not work. Don't use spackle on larger patches as it doesn't sand well and takes longer to sand out. Use Drydex or ready mixed drywall compound, the dust control one. 3. It is not always necessary to sand or scuff the trim. It depends on what you are going over and the product you are refinishing with. 4. a duster brush is just as effective. All that vacuuming is not necessary till the end. Keep your sheets in tight. 5. Your angle on the caulking tube tip depends on the angle you hold the gun. Everyone is different. Also, prime old stained wood with a stain blocking primer first then caulk the gaps all around. And you don't have to give caulking a day to dry. 6. any good painter will not tape or mask the top of a baseboard or the edges of windows and door frames... Okay... there;'s way more here and there's no point. This guys a joke and not a pro tradesman. If he went to work for a painting company he'd be gone before lunch.
